"GuinnessAndOnionBread" news and stories

I have absolutely no connection what-so-ever with Ireland. There is not an inkling of anything Irish in me although I did spend a week there some years ago. But I thought what the 'ell; lets do something Irish for St.Patrick's Day.  In fact the UK's food magazines are full of recipes with an Irish slant including this one. Guinness and Onion Bread comes from Fresh Magazine.

Guinness and Onion Bread - Ingredients

• sachet easy blend yeast
• 1 tsp sugar
• 4 tbsp warm water
• 550g strong white bread flour
• 200g strong wholemeal flour
• 15g salt
• 440ml can Guinness Extra Stout
• 2 tbsp walnut oil
• 1/2 tbsp butter
• 1 small onion finely diced
• cornmeal for dusting
• egg wash
• 2 tbsp roughly chopped walnuts

 As can be seen from the picture I used a bottled Guinness rather than from a can.
